What to bring

Yourself!  It's also a good idea to think about what design you would like to create and maybe bring along some sketches, you can always email them to us before hand for advice.  Don't worry if your not sure, we can help you with suggestions when you arrive.

General Information

The class starts at 10:00am and runs until 2pm.  We will have a 30 min lunch break.  It's a good idea to bring a packed lunch or you can buy something from one of the local shops.  The cost of the class includes materials, silver and tools used.  There is a silver allowance which should be more than enough to cover the cost of the silver used in your piece but if you do want to make something particularly large then the excess would be charged per gram based on the price of silver at the time.

Testimonials

"I have attended three courses at Nude Jewellery. I had never thought myself as capable of making jewellery but was fascinated by the concept. As a result of Nikki Galloway's teaching methods and the relaxed atmosphere of the class I was sawing, drilling and soldering with the best of them before long. The extent of my newly acquired skills were crystallised before my eyes on a recent visit to the Victoria & Albert museum in London. In the jewellery gallery a video is shown entitled 'Making a Diamond Ring' and whilst I had used an amethyst as the stone for the ring I made at Nude, I was amazed to see as the expert jeweller in the video illustrated each step in the process that I had used the exact same steps to complete my ring!. The classes are fun and also productive. I have made several pieces of which I am immensely proud. Nikki makes time for everyone in the class so it can be like receiving individual tuition a lot of the time. I would recommend the classes to anyone who has ever thought how is that piece of jewellery made or just want a creative, fun outlet. I have just signed up for another course - it's addictive!"  J Dunphy-Iny, London
